8 | !!The Segments: |
9 | [[AC:Prologue]] |
10 | * Crow tries to sell Grit to Joel and Servo. Not the newspaper, actual, literal grit. |
11 | |
12 | [[AC:Segment 1]] |
13 | * For the Invention Exchange, Dr. Forrester shows off a new line of toothpaste made of chocolate frosting that creates cavities instead of preventing them, which Frank pigs out on. Joel's invention is the Rock-N-Wreck Guitar, a guitar that easily reassembles itself after being dramatically smashed at the end of a concert. |
14 | |
15 | [[AC:Segment 2]] |
16 | * Competing for Gypsy's love, Crow and Servo put on a 1920s-style serenade for her, aptly named "Beneath the Gypsy Moons". |
17 | |
18 | [[AC:Segment 3]] |
19 | * Inspired by John Banner's overexuberent character Bavaro, the SOL crew creates "Banner-Grams", where you can send Banner to your door so everybody can share his optimism and long-windedness. |
20 | |
21 | [[AC:Segment 4]] |
22 | * Crow has Joel and Servo read from his new sci-fi screenplay. The overuse of incoherent space-babble drives them nuts. |
23 | |
24 | [[AC:Segment 5]] |
25 | * Someone has sent the crew their own Banner-Gram. Banner's tireless complimenting quickly annoys them, so they resend him to Deep 13 and let Dr. Forrester be tortured instead. |
26 | |
27 | !!The ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000'' presentation contains examples of: |
28 | |
29 | * ArmlessBiped: While neither of them are bipeds, Gypsy has no arms and Tom's don't work. Lampshaded in "Gypsy Moons": |
30 | -->'''Tom:''' Take my hand! Oh, you can't. |
31 | * BawdySong: After being rebuffed, Crow turns the "Gypsy Moons" into one of these: "'Cause when the lights go out, and we're sittin' on the couch, y'know I'm gonna give you ''ever-y-thii--''" |
32 | * BreakingTheReviewersWall: Today it's John Banner/Bavaro crossing over from the movie. |
33 | * CatchPhrase: Joel and company are delighted by Bavaro's affectionate "Boopie!", and [[CallBack call it back]] a few times in future seasons. |
34 | * CreditsGag: John Banner's Banner-Gram continues [[OverlyLongGag over the full duration]] of the end credits. |
35 | * DudeMagnet: Joel and the bots definitely think Cleolanta is a hottie. |
36 | -->'''Cleolanta:''' You are presumptuous.\ |
37 | '''Joel:''' And you are numtuous! |
38 | * FakeOutFadeOut: Twice the screen fades to black for a transition and the guys try to make a break for it, only to reluctantly sit back down when the show continues. When it finally does end, Crow expects another fake-out and stays seated, so Joel has to drag him out. |
39 | * MotorMouth: John Banner's character's endless NiceGuy yammering becomes a RunningGag, culminating in Dr. Forrester ''freaking out'' in a full-on VillainousBreakdown when Joel sends him a Banner-Gram... with Banner speaking continuously for the full running time of the end {{credits|Gag}}. |
40 | * NotSoStoic: Joel is annoyed when Crow turns "Gypsy Moons" into a BawdySong. |
41 | * OOCIsSeriousBusiness: During the last host segment, Servo asks John Banner what it was like working with Werner Klemperer on ''Series/HogansHeroes''. Banner briefly drops his jovial character and coldly threatens the crew to never speak of him again. |
42 | * RunningGag: |
43 | ** "...[[CatchPhrase Boopie!]]" and "[[FlatJoy Hi, Bavaro.]]" |
44 | ** Since John Banner of ''Series/HogansHeroes'' fame is in the cast of the film, they make several references to Sgt. Schultz. |
45 | ** Professor Newton being completely senile. |
46 | ** Joel and the Bots expressing disgust any time someone mentions "evacuating." |
47 | * SerenadeYourLover: Crow and does do this to Gypsy in the "Gypsy Moons" segment. It goes smoohly until Gypsy rebuffs them in-song by saying she would rather date ''Stacy Koon'' [[note]]One of the LAPD officers [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stacey_Koon involved in the]] Rodney King beating[[/note]] and Crow responds by singing [[BawdySong Bawdy lyrics]], which disgusts Joel to the point where he ends the whole thing. |
48 | * ShoutOut: |
49 | ** Servo starts singing "[[Film/TheThomasCrownAffair1968 The Windmills of Your Mind]]", in reference to the spaceship's spinning, circular design. |
50 | ** To the tune of "Do-Re-Mi" from ''Film/TheSoundOfMusic'': |
51 | --->'''Cleolanta:''' It's a plot! A trick!\ |
52 | '''Crow:''' A fe-male trick~! |
53 | ** Joel throws to radio DJ [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_%22Jazzbo%22_Collins Al "Jazzbeaux" Collins]] for a message while cutting off the sudden BawdySong ending "Gypsy Moons". |
54 | -->'''Joel:''' Stop! Stop! We hope you enjoyed this little trip down memory lane. And now here's our own Al "Jazzbeaux" Collins with a message. Never again you guys. That's it. |
55 | * VillainousBreakdown: When Joel and the bots send Dr. Forrester a Banner-Gram, Dr. F's eyes go wide and he bolts towards the screen, [[FauxHorrific screaming and begging]]: |
56 | -->'''Dr. F.''': DON'T YOU DO IT! DON'T YOU DO IT! I KNEW YOU SENT A BANNER-GRAM! FRANK, DON'T OPEN THE DOOR!\ |
57 | '''TV's Frank''': Hey, someone sent us a Banner-Gram!\ |
58 | '''Banner:''' Boopie!\ |
59 | (''Dr. Forrester screams, SmashToBlack'')\ |
60 | '''Frank:''' ''({{Beat}})'' ...Hi, Bavaro. |
61 | * WhamLine: After the crew gets a visit from Banner, Joel gets the idea of using the keyboard to send him away. But, to where? |
62 | -->'''Joel and the Bots''': (sing-songy) ''[[LaserGuidedKarma Oh, Dr. Forrester...]]'' |
63 | -->(cut to Deep 13) |
64 | -->'''Dr. Forrester''': [[OhCrap (hears a doorbell; turns to the camera in horror)]] |
65 | ---- |
